Found when was sorting old files. Not sure does it count as a meme or not, so kept it until weekend)

May be could help someone to finally remember the difference between ここ、そこ & あそこ.

With learning Japanese, the farther you go, the less people there are at your level. The beginning days in college were fun and exciting and we as students loved to hang out outside of classes and talk about anime and sushi. Hundreds of people in that class learning about good old Mary-san and Takeshi-san. But now I know about 3 other advanced people in my city, where hundreds of people are enrolled in the beginner level Japanese classes.

I am old and bitter. I know, Grandpa needs to shut up and read his light novels.

So, i've read all your comments on original post. And, now, an improved version of this image)

Colorblind friendly, with "そこ" as "closer to you than to me", and with "どこ" added

I passed n2 a few years back and told one of my private students Im planning to take N1 so he took it himself out of interest. This is a native Japanese speaker's score on n1. Admittedly, he's getting up there in years (63) but it really woke me up to how much more I need to study.

Any of y'all non native speakers that got a score close to or over this - or even just passed - fucking well done. This makes me wanna give up, tbh.

I became interested in this font, 'Electroharmonix.' As a Japanese speaker, I find it very difficult to read. For English speakers learning Japanese, would these characters also be hard to read? Can you read them? lol

I want to share my amazing experience. I’m on a business trip to Japan in Kyoto. Today I took a train to Kusatsu, because I know English is less common there.

I went into an Izakaya late at night and for the first time of my life spoke a full evening of Japanese with strangers. It’s soo nice to finally get a reward for all the studying. I really needed this.

So to all of you who think you’re conversations skills are not there yet. I felt the same way before arriving to Japan. But after a couple of days with my colleagues and now being by myself, proves that this is incorrect.

I’m so happy! 😁 頑張って！！！

I told her my name was Juan Carlos and she wrote Juan as “Wan”, I was expecting her to do フアン (fuan) but I dont dislike this alternative tho as F or H dont accurately represent the sound they made when speaking. Also many Anglo people pronounce Juan as “one” 💀so thats a thing.
